Chapter 56

First, vote, no vote, no show……

"Where are you going?" Qin Shuang saw Bu Zheng's intention and immediately shouted.

"Of course, I'm running. They all ran, what am I doing here?" Bu Zheng replied directly.

"…" Qin Shuang was speechless.

"Don't you think you need me to carry you?" Qin Shuang originally wanted to scold Bu Zheng a few times, but at this moment, she didn't have the time.

"Do I need to?" Bu Zheng's words made Qin Shuang even more silent.

"Oh, right, you're injured and can't run. I can't just leave you to die. Alright, I'll take a loss and carry you." Bu Zheng finally realized and said.

"…"

Qin Shuang wanted to strangle Bu Zheng to death if the conditions allowed it!

To say he was taking a loss, does he even know that the one taking a loss is me when you carry me like this!!

"Go!" Bu Zheng became decisive at this moment, directly putting Qin Shuang on his back and running. This was because the situation forced him to be decisive. The molten lava fire oxen behind them had already started charging towards them, and their speed was very fast. If they stayed any longer, it would be hard to escape.

"Damn, we forgot. Little Junior Brother's lightness skill might not be able to run fast enough, and he's carrying someone." Chu Xiong suddenly said at this moment.

And at this moment, they had already run halfway, and Bu Zheng was also running…

"This…" Qiu Yue and others found it hard to say. Bu Zheng was a novice of the first level, and his lightness skill, even if it was good, wouldn't be much better in terms of speed, at least it would definitely be slower than them.

Being slower wasn't a problem because as long as he could run faster than the molten lava fire oxen and reach a safe point before being caught, the difficulty would be relatively simple.

However, what they were worried about now was that Bu Zheng might not have the speed to even reach a safe point.

Even though Chu Xiong and others had seen Bu Zheng's lightness skill and knew it was decent in terms of movement, they couldn't tell how fast it was.

So, it was normal for them to be worried at this moment.

"Should we go back to help?" Zhao Zhiyin asked.

"No need." Qi Tian said at this moment.

"Why no need? Even if we go back to help, it will waste some time, but it will be faster than him running alone." Zhao Zhiyin replied.

That's right, if they went back to help Bu Zheng, took Qin Shuang, and then continued running, theoretically, it would be faster than Bu Zheng running alone, but this would depend on whether Bu Zheng really needed their help.

In fact…

"I said no need because he doesn't need our help at all. If you run any slower, you might even be overtaken by him." Qi Tian said on Zhao Zhiyin's back.

"Are you hit by a monster and lost your mind? No matter how slow we run, it's impossible for Bu Zheng to catch up…" Zhao Zhiyin said with disdain, thinking that what Qi Tian said was impossible.

And Qiu Yue and Chu Xiong, who were nearby, also felt the same way. How could they be outpaced by Bu Zheng in terms of speed? They were at the third level, and even if they were carrying someone, it was impossible for someone who hadn't even reached the first level to catch up.

"Ah ah ah ah… Run faster, what are you doing… Ah ah…"

Bu Zheng's voice drifted past Zhao Zhiyin and the others, as if he was catching up from behind and then overtaking them. If this was an illusion, and they had heard wrong, then was the guy carrying Qin Shuang in front also an illusion?

That was naturally impossible. Damn, what kind of lightness skill is this kid practicing? Why is he so fast, actually surpassing us, and that's a difference of two major levels.

This kind of thing has never been heard of before. Even if this kid practiced lightness skills every day, and even if we didn't practice much, the difference in levels shouldn't be able to be surpassed.

Levels?

This actually has nothing to do with the level of strength. The reason Bu Zheng can do this is that he has pushed his abilities to the limit, with no waste.

On the other hand, Zhao Zhiyin and the others, their movements were inherently a bit problematic, wasting some of their abilities, which is a common phenomenon. The lower the level of the martial art, the higher the proportion of wasted ability.

There are many ways to make up for this. The first is to gain insight on your own, but the time required is uncertain. Some people might take a short time, while others might take a long time. This is what people call the realm of mastery. When you achieve mastery in a martial art, you won't waste your abilities.

This method is rarely used because the time required is unknown, and it also means wasting time on lower-level martial arts, which is not very scientific. Unless you are an extremely talented genius who only needs a little time, but even they wouldn't waste time on lower-level martial arts.

The second method is simpler, which is to improve your level. When your level improves, you will understand more and know where you went wrong, making it easier to correct. This is the method most people prefer, but its effect is slightly worse than the first method.

The third method is to learn higher-level martial arts. Once you master the techniques, you will naturally understand. The drawback of this method is that you need to learn the same martial art and have some insight, which also takes time.

The last and simplest method is to have a good teacher. A good teacher is better than the above three methods, at least in most cases. Most people with a good teacher will complete their training faster and be stronger than those without.

In short, no matter what method you use, as long as you achieve mastery in a martial art, you can fully utilize your strength when using it. This is not the highest realm, as above mastery, there is the realm of perfection, where you can utilize 120% of your strength.

As for the realm of mastery, it might allow you to utilize even more strength, but the exact amount depends on the flaws in the martial art.

Mastery, in essence, is about correcting the flaws in the martial art and using a more correct method to unleash greater power.

For example, the lightness skill of the Qingyun Sword Sect is a low-level martial art, and its effect is not very good. Even if you achieve mastery, there is still some waste, which is a problem with the martial art itself.

The realm of perfection solves part of this problem, but you can still tell what the martial art is. The realm of mastery, on the other hand, solves most or even all of the problems, to the point where sometimes you can't even see the original martial art, as if it were a different martial art altogether.
